Kind of an hacky solution, but probably the only thing you could do is just parsing the URL and extracting the start GET argument. Then you can use the messages.startBot (https://docs.pyrogram.org/telegram/functions/messages/start-bot) method to send /start <startarg> to your bot.

Example:

from pyrogram.raw import functions
from urllib.parse import urlparse, parse_qs

def parse_url(url: str):
    parsed = urlparse(url)
    return parsed.path[1:], parse_qs(parsed.query)['start']

username, start_param = parse_url(my_url)

client.invoke(
    functions.messages.StartBot(
        bot=client.resolve_peer(username),
        start_param=start_param
    )
)
